Wacoal Simple Shaping Minimizer Bra 857109 Reviews

I purchased this item 2 months ago and gave it a very good review. However after wearing the item in rotation with other bras and handwashing it, the underwire came through the seam and the bra is unwearable. Unfortunately because it was worn, it cannot be returned. Final purchase with Her Room after many years of purchasing through them.

The bra fit true to size and did exactly what it promised... minimized my bust by one cup size so I fit nicely into my favorite dress! The back strap is a little snug but I'll get used to it. Couldn't be more pleased.

Overall this is a good bra. It gives a really nice shape, not too pointy and not too flat. I like that it doesn't spread your breasts out under your armpits like some bras do. I think it makes me look thinner, which is always a good thing. My only complaint is, I wish the straps were more cushioned at the shoulder. The width of the straps is good, but after a while the elastic really digs into my shoulders and by the end of the day my skin is very red and irritated. It's mainly just on my left shoulder for some reason. In fairness, I have this problem with almost all bras, so maybe it's just the way I'm built. This bra is pretty good, but I am still wondering if there will ever be a bra that has the best of everything..

I love it. I have a very small frame and love how it lifts and minizes with comfort and no "slippage." With all of my other bras, I have to adjust the straps throughout the day. I will definitely order more.

I love the fit of this bra and most Wacoal bras. The material however is a little stiff.

Excellent fit and lift, great construction, no rough edges to irritate skin, and it's pretty to boot.

This minimizer is just fair. The cups come up rather high so if you are wearing a v-neck shirt or sweater you may find that the bra shows. I is not nearly as supportive or as minimizing as my all-time favorite minimizer which is Wacoal 85122. For some reason the folks at Wacoal discontinued it in my size. They seem to think that minimizers are not worn by women who need a 32 band size. I need a full cup and am narrow chested so many of the styles with the wide set straps don't work for me. Wacoal, please bring back the 85122 in a 32 band size!
